I wish this would reach you

you don't realize it, but I'm playing right now

like a flower that wilts as a sprout never having a chance to grow

put these two notes together and they make one harmony. 



'thank you', 'sorry' over and over again

we're placing our need for others one atop another like blocks



when I thought about how dear the quiet hours were

I laughed a bit, that it was "love's doing" 

the gestures you showed me, signs directed at me

I won't overlook a single one ever again

that's what I'm thinking 



once in a while we soil each other with thoughtless words

and we both tire of the immaturity 

but one day we'll get naked, feel the sweet body heat, 

and show each other some kindness. 



we're similar but somehow different, but we smell the same

not merely body nor soul, I love you. 



if even the smallest of lights glows in our hearts.

we swore to treasure it

the signs that come from all those things we come across

we won't miss a single one ever again

let's live our lives this way. 



the light cast through the trees on the walking path 

hits you and sways

I learn both the beauty and cruelty of time



we still have time left

I laughed a bit, that 'we must treasure it'

the gestures you show me, signs to make me strong

I won't overlook a single one ever again

I'll live my life this way

that's what I'm thinking.
